I keep all of my VST2 dlls in a custom folder, and everything very organized. You’re absolutely right, and I am absolutely wrong on that front - I was certain I had specified my VST3 path. I can understand why it didn’t, I’m not beyond logic about this, I’m just … done. I really don’t expect anything to change, and really, I’m not angry at Renoise or the devs at all … I only wish open-sourcing it or elevating that core element could have happened. While I’ve started to feel the pull of contention in responses to my posts, the root and only point I was making, and wanted to, is that after 15+ years, I just … I’m burnt waiting. VSTs in a tracker, I feel, has been the specific power and legacy of Renoise, in part because there are plenty of other trackers that do much of the other pieces (though admittedly I’ve never felt most of them have done it nearly so cleanly). There’s been one single choice for VST-based trackers for years now for writing music, and hundreds of songs marking my history with Renoise.īut as functional synths and effects have grown, as Steinberg has long-past deprecated the VST2 standard, and as I’ve had time to test several dozen plug-ins that have both VST2 and VST3 versions across full versions of most majors DAWS while additionally running into VST performance limitations in Renoise while producing music, it’s become incredibly painful. You’ve been awesome on the forums, and immensely dedicated to Renoise and users needs. Taktik, I greatly appreciate all your time and effort and everything that you’ve done to help and respond to questions. And as stated, the developers themselves stated clearly they have other responsibilities that put Renoise on the back-burner.īut you don’t get to those posts while you’re busy trying to shoot down long-standing users over real issues that maybe you just don’t care about as much as others. I know exaxtly what it means, and I know when it’s not being done. I know what it means to code, I know what it means to be responsive to customers. I’ve worked across the industry, from Microsoft, to companies with 3 developers. Regardless, as I clearly stated, there are solutions to this problem that could greatly benefit the community that Renoise development has chosen not to pursue, leaving, again, not only VST3 support, but a great many other feature requests long unresolved. You might be talking about more recent activity, but tell me exactly how long it’s been between updates? Yeah, I don’t know of any other DAW or most tools of any scale less responsive to their community. There are responses on the Trackers group in Facebook as well, and it sounds like it’s a beastly overhaul to even come close to making this happen, based on the way the code is written. Maybe it’s the page not loading the entire thread at once, or maybe taktik doesn’t explicitly use “VST3” in his reply, but I actually did search this thread for responses - both through the browser and through the Renoise search functionality. I’m just not one of those people anymore, and the longer it continues to take Renoise to fulfill the total user base needs, the less people there will be around to give them a reason too. Glad for the people getting out of Renoise what they want and need. It’s clear that unless something changes, any time at all spent waiting or continuing to use the product is just … wasted. 15+ years I’ve held out hope, and yes, used other DAWs in the interim. There just isn’t a reason to come back to a product that doesn’t receive the attention its customer base deserves. Reaper clearly demonstrates the cost model alone is not the problem.Īs stated on multiple other occasions, if the developers at least had the decency to open source a product they no longer want or care to fully engage with themselves, the problem could still be solved by an active community. Half the problem isn’t just the lack of active development, it’s the sheer lack of response from the developers, who, as made clear by the developers themselves, have turned to other activities and don’t give Renoise, nor its customers, the attention deserved. It is well past time, but as stated, it has been well past time for several feature requests. I’d love to have a tracker that supports VST3, and based on the number of comment responses to this thread alone, so would many other users, let alone the plethora of forum posts preceding. A simple one entry search will tell you exactly the same. I think you mean Renoise 11.3, at the current rate, in about 30 years.Īlso, you’re 100% wrong.
